This Unit plan help teacher organize and navigate through 7,3 Tax Tip Discount portion of the Computation and Estimation section of Math 7 SOL standards.
This lesson uses an experiment with paper airplanes to provide data to practice finding percent of change.
This mini lesson is a slides presentation on circle graph. It's about how much time students spend on homework. The lesson has questions pertaining to the topics and which one is more or less. etc.
Students learn about and practice converting between fractions, decimals and percentages. Using a LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT robot and a touch sensor, each group inputs a fraction of its choosing. Team members convert this same fraction into a decimal, and then a percentage via hand calculations, and double check their work using the NXT robot. Then they observe the robot moving forward and record that distance. Students learn that the distance moved is a fraction of the full distance, based on the fraction that they input, so if they input ½, the robot moves half of the original distance. From this, students work backwards to compute the full distance. Groups then compete in a game in which they are challenged to move the robot as close as possible to a target distance by inputting a fraction into the NXT bot.
Students will write equivalent percent on sticky note and place in the square.
In this lesson students will compute the discount of items that are marked down by percentages.
This is a Jamboard lesson of practical problems to find the discount and sale price of items. Students will use the Desmos calculator to answer the problems and put answers on the Jamboard.
This video is part of the Continue to Know with WHRO TV series. Watch Kathryn Turner teach about equivalent fractions, decimals, and percentages using models and real-life scenarios.
This is a google slides lesson comparing fractions, decimals, and percents. Students will identify each value that represents the shaded part of the grid by highlighting the text. They will select all answers that apply.
Students learn about porosity and permeability and relate these concepts to groundwater flow. They use simple materials to conduct a porosity experiment and use the data to understand how environmental engineers decide on the placement and treatment of a drinking water well.
Are all atoms of an element the same? How can you tell one isotope from another? Use the sim to learn about isotopes and how abundance relates to the average atomic mass of an element.
